At Community Resources for Justice, we believe that society gains when all people receive the support and tools they need to lead responsible, productive, and dignified lives. For 145 years, some of society’s most overlooked citizens have benefited from the programs we provide. Our work is divided into three divisions, each with a distinct practice area and population served: Social Justice Services serves men and women transitioning out of prison and back into the community through a network of nine residential reentry centers operated under contracts with federal, state, and county agencies. Community Strategies supports adults with developmental or intellectual disabilities to live as independently as possible through a range of community-based residential options offering structure in a caring, home-like environment, as well as day programs. The Crime and Justice Institute is a national-scale consulting practice that works with elected officials, justice system practitioners, policy makers, and thought leaders to effect significant reforms to promote safety and justice. Guided by excellence, creativity, and compassion, we support individual transitions, strengthen families, promote justice, and improve community safety. CRJ is a 501c3 non-profit organization.
